Wait are you throwing up? Is that in my future? Great
I threw up about 8 times from 2:30am until about 10:30am Sunday morning, but haven't thrown up since...probably because I have nothing left in me; I'm eating, a bowl of pasta, for the first time since dinnertime Saturday.

I lost 16lbs in a week. I look great! It wasn’t fun though.
Didn't do a final weigh in, but I imagine I've probably lost 10 pounds in two days.

Thanks for the update. This is why I tell people not to believe forecasts more than three days out. I've watched the snow totals halve each day since Saturday until we were down to nothing today.

Now if you could do something about this wind, that would be great.

Crazy how everyone though this was going to be the one on Friday, and now, today, there is nothing.

That wind was crazy!

Yayyyyy great love to hear it

I mean no guarantees we have the same thing but dude I'm so f***ing annoyed. I've gone from brutal delta covid style sore throat to nasal drip voice loss to low grade fever/congestion to chest congestion/cough back to sore throat/nasal drip to sneezing/coughing/full fever and finally being able to talk again and now more head congestion but no nasal drip/throat issues

Every day or 2 something new appears or something changes. It's been 11 days. Holy f***
 
Well, as long as it's not me playing defense, you should be fine. I was on the ice for all three goals in the third period when I dropped back to replace you. I don't think I was on the ice for three goals the prior three games combined
A bit light on numbers last night, but we pulled out a 3-2 victory. I ended up moving back to D, was a -2. One shot deflected off my glove and into the net.

Rather boring game, neither team seemed interested in playing the game. 10:30 on Monday where many people have off is a rough time slot.

Nice job getting the W! How many skaters did we end up having? Yeah, I don't think there is anything worse than a 10:30 game on a Monday night. Just a shitty way to start the week. I think that was our last regular season game, so playoffs should be starting soon.

We ended up having 9 skaters, which wasn't bad...3 D, 6F. I'm pretty sure that was the last regular season game as well.

That sounds absolutely miserable. Before coming down with the real sickness, I had congestion and a head cold for like two weeks, and that was just going away, and then boom, knocked out for two days. Hopefully you don't get what I had and you can fight off what you have. Can't you go steal some meds or something? :laugh:

I've been sent a notice of Jury Duty 3 times and each time I didn't even make it to the jury selection date before the case had been resolved. I think it's pretty common? At least in Canada it seems to be.

Glad you got out either way.

Depends on where you live here. When I lived in NYC and in a different NJ county, I was excused every time. Where we live now, I get called every 3 years like clockwork, have to go in almost every time, and usually end up on a jury. I assume that’s because the population swells so much with non-residents in the summer.

I also got called for Federal Court once. Not sure how to count that one.

Just tell them that all laws are immoral, and you cannot in good conscience find someone guilty of an immoral law.

I got called for a state grand jury last year but they excused my number. I also got called for Federal duty once, but was deploying, so was excused (I assume. Otherwise I might have a warrant somewhere.).
 
I got summoned last year. Had to go in but got excused from the jury box. I didn't have to say nothing but the truth and the judge said have a nice day go back to the room downstairs, got downstairs and was dismissed. $5 wooooo hoooo.

Just when you think you've learned everything you can about why Dave Portnoy is a piece of shit, you find out something new.

Apparently he's doing rug pulls on crypto coins.

 
Anyone on here an electrician or have actual knowledge dealing with electric?
I’m trying to make a small airbrushing booth using a cardboard box, a bathroom exhaust, LED strips, and a dpdt toggle switch but I cannot fathom how to wire it up.
I want the light to be able to turn on by itself in the up position and both the fan and the light to turn in the down position, with neutral being off.

Bastard. I made it 3 days with no issue last week and when I was supposed to go to MD for work Thursday, they told me I had to come in. Sat there for three hours and then got excused.
That's so dumb. I only had to worry about today and tomorrow so I am in the clear! This was the first time I've ever been summoned and I didn't have to show up, I got lucky

I pretty much have a get out of jury free card if I ever do get selected for a criminal case, but unfortunately I do have to go through the selection process still first before I can use it. A colossal waste.
